Simply the Best

They make it sound so simple. All you have to do is "nominate the best person for the job."

But remember if we don't like who you pick, we'll shoot her down without hesitation. So go back out on that highwire and give us good leadership. Ignore all those people down there holding shotguns.

And remember, the Senate isn't really the body who decides whether your nominee is the best. It's really George Will, Charles Krauthammer and the participants at The Corner.

It's really easy. See? Just pick the best person for the job! We'll let you know if you screw up.
